- busterarm 5y agoIf anything, this is the normal state of things in business. We all know about how COBOL is alive and kicking but Python's core team decided that reality doesn't apply to them.
- eli 5y agoSure, IBM will gladly sell you an up-to-date COBOL. Just like someone will gladly sell you an up-to-date Python2. It ain't free.
- VectorLock 5y agoNobody forced the upgrade to COBOL and it still runs just like you can still run whatever old version of Python you're tied to, with the same downsides as if you ran an ancient version of COBOL.
